kaali:
pl forgive those who suspect your benevolence
i have never held a grudge against any one
who defaced your footprints
burried the memories of your kindness
and erased the mark of vermillion from
the pipal tree,
or an abandoned stone,
a broken boat;
why should i grudge
the debris of demons
you really destroyed
in me and in all those who are unable to
assimilate the essence of your kindness
you have taught me to forgive and
i have forgiven
you told me to bless
and i bless
why do then some have
such hatred in their heart
will not you bless them
and let them be in peace
why should not they be able to grow and greet
all strangers
and the friends
with ever goodness and benign benevolence
your apparent indifference may be a time of trial
for truth and transparency
that only few can admire
i pray like ever before
do not worry, do not budge
just be there for all those who
need you
more than me,
i will suffer and still sustain
devotion to not only those i know
but also towards the perfect strangers
one we do not yet know and
can never know
